This was stated by the Executive Secretary, National Agricultural Land Development Authority (NALDA), Paul Ikonne, at a media parley in Abuja, yesterday.
He explained that government would provide animal, cage, vaccine and training for them and would purchase the urine, dungs and skin of the rabbits from the beneficiaries, which he would be used to generate income.
